2nd Type with heatsealed edge (current type). 30mm x 50mm
The 4th/19th Prince of Wales’s Light Horse (4/19 PWLH) is a
cavalry regiment of the Australian Army. The regiment in its current composition
was formed in 1948 when the Citizens Military Force (CMF) was re-raised after
the completion of the demoblisation process following the end of the Second
World War and it was formed through the amalgamation of three previously
existing regiments. Through these predecessor units, 4/19 PWLH can trace its
lineage back to the 19th Century and today it is the custodian of the battle
honours earned by these units. Between
1960_65 the regiment had a Regular squadron attached to it, although in 1965
this squadron was removed from the order of battle and its personnel used to
form a number of other Regular cavalry units that continue to exist in the
Australian Army today. These units subsequently served during the Vietnam War
and many of their personnel continued to wear regimental accoutrements while in
South Vietnam.
Today 4/19 PWLH is a Reserve regiment and forms part of the
4th Brigade, 2nd Division based in Victoria. Recently it was re-roled from an
armoured personnel carrier unit operating M113s, to a light cavalry unit
operating modified Landrover four-wheel drives. This was in line with the Army
wide restructure of the Reserve units of the Royal Australian Armoured Corps
(RAAC).
